Since being a Cohort 2 ACCCESS Fellow, family life has led Barbra through a series of part-time, temporary teaching gigs at many colleges in many states. Her time in ACCCESS inspired her to continue sending herself to AMATYC conferences, even when she was between teaching gigs. While underemployed, she pursues her childhood dream of becoming a “Rennaisance [Wo]man” and perpetual student. She attempted to start a brand new community college, led a non-profit to increase access to postsecondary education, developed and led a program to support engineering students from underresourced high schools and underrepresented backgrounds, taken classes for and passed the CPA exam (though she isn’t actually licensed), worked as a school’s finance manager, earned her MBA, and she is now learning Spanish. She lives in Portland, Oregon with her spouse and daughter and is ecstatic to teach community college students regularly again.

Matthew is the Chair of the Mathematics and Computer Science Department at HACC, Central Pennsylvania’s Community College. He is a past-president of the Pennsylvania State Mathematics Association of Two-Year Colleges as well as a Project ACCCESS Cohort 9 fellow.
